I feel truly lucky that Teresa was part of my mom’s care. I honestly cannot imagine anyone doing a better job caring for her. Teresa was truly exceptional in caring for my mom during a very difficult stage of her dementia. She went far beyond the basics of caregiving and treated my mom with incredible patience, kindness, and dignity. Teresa prepared meals, helped with bathing, took my mom on outings and daily walks, and made sure she was engaged and not sitting around bored or anxious. She also helped my mom with her TV and electronics, which made a huge difference in keeping her comfortable and entertained. She was wonderful about helping around the house as well. She did light housekeeping, helped keep things organized, and even watered the plants. These little things made such a big difference and allowed our family to feel like everything was being taken care of. One of the things I appreciated most was how consistently Teresa kept me informed. She sent daily texts, phone calls, and pictures so I always knew how my mom was doing and what they had been up to. That gave me tremendous peace of mind. Caring for someone with dementia can be incredibly challenging, especially when they are anxious or having a difficult day, and Teresa handled those moments with such patience and compassion. She became someone our family truly trusted and relied on. I am incredibly grateful for everything Teresa did for my mom. She went above and beyond in every way, and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional, compassionate, and trustworthy caregiver.
